I must be over-looking some basic step in setting up (or attempting to) mysql. This is on a Slackware-8.1 box.I have done the "mysql_install_db; mysqladmin -u <user> -p password 'new-pasword' I then use "safe_mysqld &" to start mysqld .. then when I try to create or do anything I keep getting mysqld Enter password: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)' Any thoughts? I missed something of that I'm sure. I've read the FM over and over again but I can't see what I've missed. I followed (HTML docs) to the letter and still no joy. Should setting up mysql be this illusive?
